(Location cited as NO 6299 9419). Upper Tillygarmond. This structure is situated amongst outcropping bedrock and boulders at an altitude of about 230m OD; it is in poor condition. Oval on plan, it measures 10m by up to 6.3m and is defined by denuded stone and earth banks which incorporate some large boulders. Although it is very similar to a Pitcarmick-type house, it may be of earlier prehistoric date.

NMRS, MS/712/90.
